Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO -
Chapter 490
Chapter 490 None Other Than Her
Joseph stared at Pierre in disbelief. "W-What are you talking about?"
"The truth." Pierre shot his uncle a disdainful look. "Selena Yard is my legal wife, and we have received our marriage certificate. Now, Helen has been sentenced to death, and since Chris is not a Fowler, Selena would be the matriarch of the Fowler Family now."
Selena stared at him, mouth agape and speechless. Just like her, everyone else was shocked to hear the declaration from him. How generous and forgiving Pierre is! How could he give Selena the title of the family matriarch!
"By the way, Dad had passed the family heirloom to her when he was still alive. That shows that he acknowledged her as his one and only daughter-in-law."
John had indeed gifted the set of jewelry to Selena. However, as she was angry at Pierre that time, she returned the jewelry to Pierre defiantly. Did Pierre secretly keep the set of jewelry for me?
"I bet that you all are tired from the funeral today. I will pick an appropriate day to announce the details of the will. Alright, time to go home now."
As he spoke, he yawned lazily and led Selena away from the funeral venue.
On their way home, she kept stealing glances at him, and she noticed that he looked a little upset.
After he was attacked by Joseph's hurtful words, he still chose to protect me.
"Pierre."
"Pull over."
When she called out to him, he suddenly asked the driver to stop the car instead.
The driver quickly pulled over as instructed.
Then, Pierre turned around to look at her before placing her hand in his palm and patting it reassuringly. "Selena, you should return to the hospital first. I have some other matters to deal with."
She did not ask him about the details. Since he had given no explanation on what he would attend to, she guessed that he would not tell her even if she asked.
"Sure. Be safe."
Then, Pierre hopped off the car, and the driver drove her to the hospital.
The three children were having fun on their own at the hospital. Technically, they should have attended their grandpa's funeral. However, Juniper and Joaquin were in recovery, and Jameson was timid in nature -he had been traumatized by John's death, not to mention that John did not even have a body in full form for the kids to say their final goodbyes to.
Hence, after a discussion with Pierre, they decided to not let the kids attend the funeral.
"Mommy!" When she stepped into the room, she heard Juniper and Jameson yelling in unison.
Of course, Joaquin would never address her in that way.
No matter how exhausted she was, she would keep her negative emotions under wraps whenever she saw the bright faces of the children. "I'm back! Did you miss me?"
"Yes!" Again, Juniper and Jameson replied at the same time as Joaquin looked on coolly without a word.
She took a seat on the sofa, and Jameson immediately climbed into her lap. "Mommy, when is Jojo and Juniper leaving the hospital? I'm bored to death at home!"
She caressed his hair and replied, "Soon. Don't worry. I will check with the doctor."
"Yeah, Mommy, I want to leave the hospital too. It's not fun here."
"But the doctor does not allow you to leave. Look, Jojo and you have gone through a major operation, and you should be resting and receiving treatment at the hospital. Anyway, you should be able to leave the hospital very soon now."
Selena tried her best to pacify the children. Their tantrum was understandable because it was too cruel to keep active young children trapped indoors.
She stayed with the children until they fell asleep at night. After that, she went to meet with the doctor who was on shift, who happened to be Juniper's attending physician.
"Doctor, judging from Juniper's condition, when do you think she can be discharged?"
